Thanks folks. Looks like we need to just commit to going Thurs. eve and figure the overnight out or do a "crack O dawn" departure on Friday. It's about 4 hours from here so if we get up and go early am we could probably be on the water by about 9(ish). What to do,what to do...... hmmmm

Thinking about doing this with the wife next weekend (9/19 - 9/21). Suggestions/ advice? Put in locations? If we arrive pm of the 19th can we camp at a put in/ parking area for that evening? Suggested camp sites? I have poked around at some of the threads that Lila is mentioned so I have half...

Nice stretch thru there. Thanks for taking us along.

Here are a couple thoughts. My GoPro H+3 Black gets pretty good sound even in it's waterproof case. Last year I did the Floodwood loop and it picked up the loons clearly. The other thought is that My same GoPro is NOT a very good device at all in low light. So regardless of the sound quality...

Yknpdlr.... Will do.

Robin- Lake Lila looks pretty good.... 2 questons: 1- Where is the put in for LIla? 2- Is there an ability to get into the surrounding waters I see on the map from Lila? such as Slim Pond etc? yellowcanoe- I took and made a paddle with Caleb last friday and will be there again Sunday to make a...

Hey all. I have the itch (yet again) to just get out for a couple days with m canoe. I'm retired now so a mid week trip is what I'm thinking in the hopes of finding minimal crowds. I recognize it's summer and the ADK's are much busier. I want to avoid "crowds" and don't want to have to stress...

I like Weather underground as well and use it with NOAA which I have found actually necks the accuracy down. I especially like that locals can add info as its in their backyard which helps to give me a timing of storm movement.

NOAA And NOAA's graph that shows numerous weather factors on a 48hr (only) chart. So for example this: Hourly Weather Forecast for 42.47N 75.04W (Elev. 1499 ft)

Interestingly I have not kept a journal of backpack or canoe trips. I have thought about it but have yet to. What's odd about that is that the wife and I each keep travel journals and find great joy in occasional readings from them. We will sometimes jump around in them and read a passage about...

Ahhh sorry. the wife and I are away over that time frame. Bummer. well enjoy if you go.

First of all I concur with Hoop's post. I can only add that I have both a Bahco folder and a I have a 21" folding "Bob Destrude" saw. The Destrude saw is fantastic and the price is right. It weighs little and works hard. I've used it on numerous backwoods and canoe trips. Yes I travel with...

When? I'm open to a trip.

Ok. Thank you for what you've done this far. I'm new here but have found this a very squared away forum and very much along my style.

How does one donate to help find the site?

No Title This is how I get my joys on the water.....The boat moving machines.....

This... NOW.... That said, I do enjoy trips with my wife and friends or even folks I haven't met. But they are different type trips than i'm inclined to or prefer in general. While my wife does occasionally go with me, the reality of our lives is that she is still gainfully employed. Being...

Oh I forgot to mention my canoe is a 16' Mohawk Blazer.

Stripper, We own 2 sailboats actually. One is a 1968 O'Day Day Sailor 1 and the other a 25' O'Day. We have had both on Otsego, but now only the Day Sailor is on the lake. We keep the 25 on the Hudson out of Kingston. Although this year she will be dirt Sailing as I want to do some projects...

Yes there is a lot of canoe opportunities here. I have paddled the 70 mile General Clinton regatta twice. I have been kicking the ADK club idea around. Maybe I'll just do it. ...
